CRANK TIME: Set this delay to the desired amount of time you want each engine
cranking attempt to last. Consult your engine manual for recommended cranking and
resting times (adjustable from 1 to 30 seconds). Factory set to 10.
REST TIME: Set this delay to the desired amount of time you want each rest period
between cranking attempts to last. Consult your engine manual for recommended resting
and cranking times (adjustable from 1 to 30 seconds). Factory set to 10
RECRANK DELAY: This delay is used to adjust the amount of time the controller will
wait for the engine to stop moving before attempting another crank if a false start occurs.
A false start is when the engine starts but then dies before the LOCKOUT DELAY (S9)
has expired (adjustable from 1 to 30 seconds). Factory set to 10.
CRANK STOP RPM: This RPM set point is used to adjust where the controller releases
the starter during cranking. Set this to the RPM the engine attains just as it starts. This
way, the starter is not engaged unnecessarily after the engine starts. This is how the
controller senses whether the engine is running or not. Factory set to 300.
CRANK ATTEMPTS: Set the number of attempts you would like the controller to try an
engine start. If the engine fails to start after the number of attempts you have selected, it
will fail and display OVERCRANK on the front display. This shutdown requires a manual
WARMUP RPM: This is the engine RPM the controller will throttle the engine to during
warm-up in auto mode. Consult the engine manual for the optimum warm-
Factory set to 600.
COOLDOWN RPM: This is the engine RPM the controller will throttle the engine to
during cooldown. Consult the engine manual for the optimum cooldown speed. Factory
set to 600.
MIN ENG RPM: When throttling in the AT LOAD state, the engine will not throttle below
this set point. Factory set to 750.
MAX ENG RPM: When throttling in the AT LOAD state, the engine will not throttle above
this set point. Factory set to 1600.
RATE INC RPM: This set point is used to customize how fast or slow the controller will
increase the engine RPM while throttling. Experiment with this number until the proper
throttling is achieved. (All engines) Factory set to 10.
RATE DEC RPM: This set point is used to customize how fast or slow the controller will
decrease the engine RPM while throttling. Experiment with this number until the proper
throttling is achieved. (All engines) Factory set to 10.
THR MIN PULS: This set point is used to further customize the way controller will throttle
the engine. Higher numbers will cause the throttling outputs to stay active for longer
periods of time when the system is throttling either up or down. If the engine is hunting
then lower the value. If the engine never reaches the set point then increase the value.
(Used with MECHANICAL engine throttle type S40). Factory set to 8400.
